Thanksgiving Series - Paul Was Thankful
Last Sunday Discovery Point: Thanksgiving Series - Paul Was Thankful This month we have learned that there are many ways to show thankfulness to God and others. Moses and Miriam sang songs of praise to show their thankfulness, while Hannah sacrificially gave her son over to God to serve in the temple. Today we learned how and why Paul was thankful to God and his friends, the Philippians. He gives the example that we can be thankful even when we face tough situations. Paul wrote a letter of thankfulness to the Philippians while he was in prison, and he showed thankfulness to God through prayer. We can always be thankful to God in spite of our circumstances because He is still in control! So, during times when we don't feel like there's anything to be thankful for, we can remember Paul's example and trust that God will continue taking care of us too. Scripture used: Philippians 1:1-21 Memory Verse: "I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers
